Math Monsters are what I call the group of kids I work on a daily basis providing intensive intervention for Math. I love taking what seemed impossible and making it fun. Finding ways to make math fun takes some work at times but I get a great deal of guidance and a plethora of ideas from two blogs in particular.
Two Blogs I follow every week:
Math Coaches Corner by Donna Boucher
A veteran K-5 Instructional Mathematics Coach. Donna writes frequent blog posts on the subject of Elementary Math. She provides ideas for hands on activities and instructions on how to break math into small manageable chunks for students.
Flapjack Educational Resources by Tabitha Carro
You have to love her Blog tag line "Have Fun the Learning Will Come" Tabitha is a Spanish partial-immersion math and science 4th grade teacher who creates some amazing math and science activities. Tabitha has created some great QR Codes.
There is a great entry on this blog site about QR Codes in the Classroom. It lays out everything you need to know to create activities using QR codes.
Take a look at these two blogs and let me know what you think.
